For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness. | For the word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. |
He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord. | The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love. |
|
By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, and all their host by the breath of his mouth. | By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth. |
Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage. | Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance. |
Truly the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love. | But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love. |
Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in you. | May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you. |
